Chords
Intro | E | C#m7 | play two times E C#m7 E C#m7 You never asked me what I wanted. You only asked me why. E C#m7 E B E I never thought that so much trouble was a-rested on my reply. A E I could say it was the nights when I was lonely A C#m7 and you were the only one who'd come. A E I could tell you that I like your sensitivity, F# B when you know it's the way that you walk. A E Why do you have to say that there's always someone A E who can do it better than I can? A E But don't you think that I know that walking on the water B won't make me a miracle man? Baby's gotta have the things she wants. You know she's gotta have the things she loves. She's got a ten-inch bamboo cigarette holder and her black patent leather gloves. And I'm doing everything just tryin' to please her, even crawling around on all fours. Oh, I thought by now that it was gonna be easy, but she still seems to want for more. (chorus) | E | C#m7 | play two times I hear they're givin' you a bad reputation just because you've never been denied. You try to say you've done it all before. Baby, you know that you just get tired. Yet everybody loves you so much, girl. I just don't know how you stand the strain. Oh, I, I'm the one who's here tonight, and I don't wanna do it all in vain. (chorus) | E | C#m7 | repeat to fade
